Zidoo is known for their Arm based Android TV boxes targeting the consumer market, but the company also runs ZidooLab for the B2B market, and especially digital signage application, which may explain why they release a digital signage SDK a while ago.

The company can customize hardware and software for their customer’s needs, but what caught my intention is that they have Arm based digital signage players that comply with OPS (Open Pluggable Specification) that was first released by Intel in 2010, and defines electrical, mechanical and thermal specifications of OPS compliant devices which are meant to be plugged into compliant monitors.

ZidooLab has currently two Android OPS hosts: A1 & A2 that share most of the same specifications, except for the processor, and some I/Os:

Customers who don’t need to use OPS host can instead run their digital signage application in Zidoo X8 or X9S. I could not find much details about software support, except they provide their own SDK to allow customers/partners to developer their own app using HDMI input, set rotation, adjust layout and so on. THere’s no default digital signage software for layou design, fleet management, etc, so this would have to be custom-designed, or integrated by yourself or Zidoo with your current management system.
